Here at culture tech we were the first to bring you hints of a new Sigur Ros album – it proved to be our most popular article to date. Now we have some new and substantial news. At 8:12 PM I received a cryptic email from Sigur Ros’ email news.

The centre part of the email, containing the word ‘inni’ which translates from Icelandic as Inside, is a link leading the viewer to this page, which contains this cryptic video.

My assumption would be that INNI is the title to a new sigur ros album, which we know has been in the works since the spring (see our earlier article).

The level of excitement here at Culture Tech is off the scale, this is one to look out for! Keep your eyes fixed.

Earlier this year Google showed off the newest of their mobile services designed to make life easier, Google Wallet. Google Wallet is an application that uses an Android phone equipped with a near field communication chip (or NFC chip) and links it to your debit or credit card. You can then leave the card at home and as long as you have your phone with you, make purchases using the application. Currently it’s in beta and only works in Portland and San Francisco but Google is committed to rolling out more cities over time.

Have you ever left the country? If like me, you don’t have the monetary funds to leave the United States, don’t be too upset. Though it would be nice to physically leave the country, it isn’t an option to some. I’ve found that there are ways to explore other worlds right here in my own city.

Our current generation of musicians is lacking something: it’s not guitarists, it’s not computers, it’s not drum machines, and it’s certainly not auto-tune: We’re missing poets. A modern lyricist who can talk about imagination, emotion, and thoughts without resorting to blunt clichés or exhausted stories is rare. However, indie-folk songwriter Emmy the Great helps fight against that dilution with her new album, Virtue.

Last year Sprint and HTC teamed up to create the worlds first 4G smartphone the EVO 4G. The EVO’s high specs giant screen and interesting design quickly made it one of the most successful Android phones ever created. About a year later Sprint and HTC are teaming up to create the next phone in the EVO line and they are aiming to make it just as revolutionary as the first.
